Answer:carbon dioxide is released during combustion
The average atomic mass of an element can be determined by multiplying the individual masses of the isotopes with their respective relative abundances, and adding them.
Average atomic mass of Br = 158 amu(0.2569) + 160 amu(0.4999) + 162 amu(0.2431)
Average atomic mass = 159.96 amu
As described in the problem, the relative abundance for Br-79 is 25.69%. This is because 2 atoms of Br is equal to 79*2 = 158 amu. Similarly, the relative abundance of Br-81 is 81*2 = 162, which is 24.31%.
Answer:
HOAc is stronger acid than HClO
ClO⁻ is stronger conjugate base than OAc⁻
Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰
Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷
Explanation:
Assume 0.10M HOAc => H⁺ + OAc⁻ with Ka = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵
=> [H⁺] = √Ka·[Acid] =√(1.8 x 10⁻⁵)(0.10) M = 1.3 x 10⁻³M H⁺
Assume 0.10M HClO => H⁺ + ClO⁻ with Ka = 3 x 10⁻⁸
=> [H⁺] = √(3 x 10⁻⁸)(0.10)M = 5.47 x 10⁻⁵M H⁺
HOAc delivers more H⁺ than HClO and is more acidic.
Kb = Kw/Ka, Kw = 1 x 10⁻¹⁴
Kb(OAc⁻) = 5.5 x 10⁻¹⁰
Kb(ClO⁻) = 3.3 x 10⁻⁷
